BREAKING: How is this NOT a televised confession of Obstruction of Justice by a U.S. president?

"It's a total witch hunt. I've been saying it for a long time. I've wanted to keep it down."

"I've wanted to keep it down"? WHAT?

This happened this hour.

1. Well sure, if a democrat said that in this scenario they would be in jail by dinner

so to speak, not really but you know what I mean...but IOKIYAR

2. He also said he fired Comey and we see how he was right doing that.

3. That's probably not enough on its own.

All he said was that he "wanted" to keep it down (i.e., obstruct justice). This certainly helps prove intent, but there needs to be more. The Lester Holt interview is a lot more damning.

5. Taken all together

There is a yuge pile of evidence.

4. Maybe his lunch.... possibly ?

If I was him it would be experiencing wretched heaves and spewing vomit time - with all this criminal exposure coming down the pike all at once.

His Roy Cohn # II - super sharp - top of his class - no flies on him - brainiac wizard lawyer's offices just got raided of over 1,000,000 documents by the Feds. You can't blame the client if he had a bit of indigestion at this moment - good Lord his whole world is about to cave in and everything he currently owns is about to be seized.

Poor sap.

6. I wonder if Melania has made herself a delicious sammy and maybe some ice cream with

chocolate sauce. Daddy will be late tonight...

7. I read that too.

This is turning into a very interesting day.

8. No kidding!
